At the Zeit Neurolab, we translate measurement into understanding — from single-cell recordings to whole-brain clinical trials.
Our laboratory bridges cellular measurement, human neuroimaging, and computational modeling. Dozens of active experiments run each week across cognitive neuroscience, computational psychiatry, and brain–computer interfaces.
